About this listen

When the rules turn deadly, winning is everything.

Only available from Audible, a gripping psychological thriller from the author of Silent Child, Saving April, and The Broken Ones. Perfect for fans of Gillian Flynn, Lisa Jewell and Paula Hawkins.

This gripping multi-voice audiobook features Billie Piper as Effie, Dan Stevens as Ben, Shane Zaza as David, and Avita Jay as Sophie, other roles are played by Felicity Duncan, David Holt and Sarah Whitehouse.

The perfect couple. The perfect marriage. The perfect game.

Effie and Ben May have everything. Success. Beauty. Glamour. But beneath the charming smiles and expensive clothes, a twisted game is in progress.

A game for which only they know the rules.

Leaving their fast-paced London life behind them, the Mays move to the exclusive gated community of Ivy Oaks. Here they can settle down and start a family in this quiet, safe little neighbourhood. At least, that’s what they tell their new neighbours.

But the truth has deadly consequences.

While Effie and Ben scheme and manipulate those around them, they fail to notice their carefully cultivated façade crumbling away. The perfect couple soon turn the game on each other, breaking all the rules. But when the stakes are life and death, losing isn’t an option.

As the final cards are dealt, who will play the winning hand and who will pay the ultimate price?

I loved this audiobook! All the narrators were so good and it really drew me in from the start. I would definitely have been happy to use a credit on it but as it was included in the subscription price it was a double bonus! Highly recommended! Another great book by Sarah A Denzil!

Brilliant!

It’s like a dark comedy mixed with a murder thriller. Enjoyed the twisty tale, great performances and intriguing characters. Sad it’s over!

Gripping twisty and well performed

I really liked this book. It was different to other books as it's read in the first person by the corresponding character and therefore gets straight into the story without endless rambling descriptions of things. Good story, well delivered, especially by Billie Piper who seemed to very cleverly 'act' with her voice. A good book well worth a listen
